Murderville might not sound like an original idea, but the show has quite the premise. The scripted series has everyone with a script, besides the celebrity guest partner. Here’s how Netflix describes the new series.

Meet Senior Detective Terry Seattle (Will Arnett), Homicide Division. For Terry, every day means a new murder case and a new celebrity guest star as his partner. But here’s the catch: each episode’s guest star isn’t being given the script. They have no idea what’s about to happen to them. Together, the guest star and Terry Seattle will have to improvise their way through the case… but it will be up to each celebrity guest alone to name the killer. Join them as they punch a one-way ticket to Murderville.  The six-episode procedural crime comedy premieres globally on Netflix on February 3. Based off the BAFTA award winning BBC3 series Murder in Successville by Tiger Aspect Productions and Shiny Button Productions.  

It stars Will Arnett, Haneefah Wood, Lilan Bowden, and Phillip Smithey. The guest stars for the first season are Annie Murphy, Conan O’Brien, Ken Jeong, Kumail Nanjiani, Marshawn Lynch, and Sharon Stone. Krister Johnson is the Showrunner, Writer, and Executive Producer on the series.
